Since 2007, the
Latin-American Conference on High Performance Computing (CLCAR) is an event for
students, scientists and researchers in the areas of high performance
computing, high throughput computing, parallel and distributed systems,
Grid Computing, e-science and applications, in a global context, but with special scope in
latinoamerican propositions.

The program and scientific
committees of CLCAR 2012 is formed by experts and researchers from different
countries and related domains. Competent people from various countries and
institutes will carry out the process of evaluating the proposals. CLCAR
2012 to be held in Ciudad de Panama, Panama, in August 27-31.

The best-selected works,
